Who Wins
- You lose early 1v1s as Syndra outranges your passive stars and can Q-E combo you when you approach for CS.
- Post-6 you still struggle in pure 1v1s since her R burst combined with Q-E can kill you faster than your R-Q combo, though your sustain damage is higher if you survive the initial burst.
How to Trade
- Your best trades involve using W to quickly engage with passive stars, landing Q for the stun, then immediately backing out with W movement speed.
- Never try to extended trade without your W escape available, as Syndra will out-DPS you with her lower cooldowns.
Wave Control
- Focus on shoving waves with E to execute minions for stacks, then use W to roam and impact other lanes rather than fighting Syndra directly.
- Your wave clear becomes superior once you have E stacks, allowing you to create roam timers while she's stuck farming under tower.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't try to fight Syndra when your W is on cooldown, as you become an easy target for her Q-E combo without your mobility.
- Avoid standing near your own minions when trading, as her Q splash damage and potential multi-orb E will punish you heavily.
